Answer: He noticed that the songs upset Odysseus.

When Odysseus is at the court of Alcinous, the king hosts a banquet and games in honor of his guest. At that banquet, the blind man Demodocus is invited, and he sings about the quarrel between Odysseus and Achilles at Troy. Although everyone seems to enjoy the song, Odysseus is upset because it brings painful memories of the past. The king notices this, and he decides to end the feast.

Can someone give me a good summary and incorporate a theme development and other story details please its due soon about we beat
kap26 [50]
Themes are developed by authors through the following ways: What happens - key events. Characters - character qualities, character actions and how characters respond to situations may all relate to theme. Character development - the ways characters change, and the lessons they learn indicate themes for the reader. The major theme in a literary work is the most significant idea the author is trying to convey. A theme can be anything from “Love and Friendship” to “Good versus Evil.” It's the underlying idea that connects the plot and characters with a deeper meaning.
Hope this helps!! :)
